No1sonuk Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Has anyone even managed to get a shot lined up at the UAV? Once I'd eventually figured out how the UAV was marked, and managed to make it SPI, I couldn't get a shot. innumerable Stalls and a couple of spins later, and I'm wondering if it's even possible.

How was the UAV marked? I was chasing it around based on bogey dope calls and looking at my tracks I kept missing it barely.

Ready Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Yeah sure. I loved that mission. It can be done! I think I shot it with different weapons at different times, including the gun. At first it was quite hard to spot it. Just fly a bit lower and listen for the bogey dope. It flies very slow. Easiest is to just get on its six and clip a wing.

Ready Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I just flew a bit lower as the indicated UAV alitude so I could spot the UAV better against the sky.

seven10 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I'll have to try some more, I've still been unable to find it but I was close when looking at my tracks.

seven10 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Definitely helpful to see your approach to it, I'll need to give it a go again myself too. I do think all my attempts were done from too high of an altitude so I had more trouble picking out the UAV.

seven10 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) You did it cleaner than I did, I ended up running out of rounds and well.. I got creative and tipped my wing into the uav and tanked both of us while I ejected to safety.
